ditto

had a call from an Indian sounding male advising me that my computer has a virus and that the firewall had expired. If I paid a renewal; fee to 'Microsoft' I can have my firewall reactivated.

Microsoft confirmed it was a scam. Beware!!!

I also got an Indian guy from 'technical.. Microsoft software'.

I'm bit of a technical computer expert, so was interested in where he was going to lead me.  I had similar calls before but kept putting the phone down as I was pretty busy, but this time I had time to listen.

He showed me some windows event logs and falsely claimed the logs were all caused by a virus, then he showed me some system files and blatantly claimed they were viruses that had been downloaded.

He then wanted to take over my computer (using teamviewer), so I quickly booted up a different computer that wasnt important, and let him control that.  He then downloaded iobit software, which is actually good software I recommend, as to show me there were issue with the machine.  This software always finds issues - highly recommended scan, but then he tried to sell me his 'anti-virus' based upon this.

When I was unwilling to give a credit card number, he showed me some company details.. ABN: 29-002-589-460 (North Ryde), his number (above), and said I could call back.

Asian/Indian woman and man wanting to get access to my computer for unknown reason. Couldn't make sense of it and man was angry for my questions.

I just had the same call, Rang microsoft straight after, They have had 4 reports of the same thing today.

Same above, they called my old man.
Advised him that they were scammers

Indian male caller, said he was from Windows Technical Support.  I questioned him as to the name of the company he worked for.  He replied Microsoft, I then pushed for his phone number which he gave.  Then I told him Microsoft never calls anyone, especially at 7.30pm, that he was a vulture.  He hung up on my.

Another Indian call centre scammer.
